The silliest is that we have a bypass on the A421 here. Three years ago someone was killed on that road, at 70mph due to a stray bull.

The speed limit is 70mph. OK, perhaps drive a better car with better brakes, but..................

more recently, there was a case of a couple of motorcyclists racing each other (and neither came to harm) but got caught but a mobile camera at over 140mph each. For clarity, no one else was hurt either.

So now, what do we get,

A mobile camera van, set up to catch people head on going over 70mph.

1. In the opposite direction,

and

2.... Bikes don't have front number plates anyway.

What a ****in. joke.

It's tempting to plough into the van and claim that you wre distracted by its prescence and it encumbered upon your view of the road.
